The way the song is described in Walter Mitty totally opened my eyes to David's message and opened my eyes to aspects of myself that are very valuable. This song is about courage and about stepping forward into the unknown. We are all stepping into the unknown, each day, and its scary as hell. Space Oddity shares the strength and amazing possibilities that we all have within us. Rest In Peace David Bowie, you were a brilliant and inspirational man who's music and message will last as long as time.
+Hillsdale you are absolutely right. it's unbelievable that our life is like miracle and we can do it so many things as we just only have a determination to achieve our dreams. Give me so much inspiration to realize my dreams. Live can be so beautiful and love is so powerful. God and peace be with you,, dear David. You are always in my mind.
Hummm... the first version, the really first one is tipically a man whose taken drugs and burn is brain and never go back.... "protein pill"... after, the second version was more oriented to this kind of message but the first one... not really (listen the song ashes to ashes... at a moment "We know Major Tom's a junkie"). But yes, I prefer this message too .The first one here : ua-cam.com/video/D67kmFzSh_o/v-deo.html ps : sorry for my english lol
Wow! Wiig's singing voice is beautiful. Haunting. A perfect complement to Lord Bowie's. Kristen Wiig's gorgeous voice makes this just perfect. I'll never not get chills from this version.

Walter Mitty was such a great movie. I will miss David Bowie so such, I was looking forward to seeing movies with his music/soundtracks, the movies he chooses are usually fantastic, would of loved to see more of his work he was taken from us too soon :(
I think many people feel so abandoned just like major Tom losing his connection with Earth... maybe in few decades the David Bowie´s work will be fully understood. Such a respect to Kristen Wiig to be a part of this
David Bowie gave me the ability to be who I am and be proud of myself. I get called weird and strange all the time but as soon as I put in my ear phones or get in my car and blast David's music, all of those hateful things that people say to me go out the window and I can then hear the voice of David saying, "Oh no, love you're not alone." I miss him more and more everyday because my light has forever went out and I don't know what to do without it. I hope, more than anything, that David is at peace. I wish I would have been able to thank him for everything that he has done for me in person, but I have this strange feeling that he is looking down and he knows. I love you Starman!! Gone but forever in my mind, soul, and heart ❤️❤️
+katelyn metcalf and also Ben Stiller bring me a great movie that really gave me the ability to be who I am and be proud of myself. You should see the movie, the secret life of walter mitty.
I heard this song before but had no idea of it's meaning until now. Take courage and go for it! Fear nothing and enjoy the ride! It's worth it! SO much to be heard, seen and done! You'll never know what your dreams really look, feel, smell, hear, taste like if you don't put on your walking shoes and go get it!
I often play this song when working in my maintenance hub before a really big project. I am always the only one there when I work. So I channel it through the PA and I get the huge hub echoing it. It puts me in the right frame of mind for the large project.
This song was supposed to be a duet when it was conceived by David. That's how it was sang initially until Gus Dudgeon blended both his and David's genius and magic and hey this song was born.
Bowie is too cool to be called a pop star or whatever words people want to use to describe him. He got under the skin. The man was an absolute rare gem. He created his own genre. The best. Rest in Peace.

Hey,bu müthiş bir şarkı. Teşekkür ederim. Sanki uzayda terkedilmişim hissi verdi. Özellikle coverını da dinledim. Ve şarkıda hapsoldum gibi hissettim. Çok etkilendim. Bu gece dinleyerek uyuyabilirim. Seçip şarkımı paylaşacağım
beğenmene sevindim :) walter mitty filmi sayesinde tanımıştım bu şarkıyı. film de hem biraz komik hem de sahnelerin düşündürücü olduğu güzel bir filmdi. moral tazelediğini ise net şekilde söyleyebilirim. belki bir gün izlemek istersin diye söyleyeyim dedim. her ne kadar daha iyi hissetmeni umsam da, hala aynı hatta belki de daha durgun hissettiğini de biliyorum. ama bu vakitler seni en çok geliştircek vakitler de, buna inanıyorum. şarkı önerin için teşekkür ederim dinliyorum şimdi♥
@@fathomlessdame6902 Listeme ekledim. Umarım öyle olur, teşekkür ederim. Sen de daha iyi hissedersin umarım. Yüreğinde varsa ağırlık hafifler,zihnin dinginleşir🖤
Can you hear me Major Tom?...can you hear me? I have lost contact with ground control. We had the contact for so many years. I will miss you Major Tom. I am sitting in this tin can on the face of this planet, and I will always miss you. I will miss every one of you.
When you made the simple plane in real life and no one cares or disturbing to you .walk slowly and play the music ,kick the engines to start and countdown go fly away
This is a true story. It took NASA 2 hours to talk this astronaut down and NASA did get his wife to talk with him over communications. When his capsule hit the water, he blew the hatch too soon (on live TV), and almost killed himself, anyway. After this incident this astronaut was never heard about again. There is actual footage of the entire incident at NASA. Some of it, if not all, was on television in real time. I remember watching his wife on the phone with him from NASA headquarters. You hve to remember back then all of this was live television, especially space shots and touch downs. The entire US NAVY was on the ocean on speculated touch down coordinates to retrieve the astronaut and capsule. My parents bought the stuff the astronauts ate in space, TANG, for one - "if the astronauts eat it so can you!!". Some kids did not believe this is a true story. Only when the beginning of, I DREAM OF JEANNIE, was mentioned - when the capsule lands in the water - did they finally believe it. Then they all shut-up.
With the addition of Kristen's voice, this is gorgeous.

Hillsdale Same. I've always liked David Bowie but I think I originally missed the message of this song. Ben did a really nice job visualizing that
Oh my godnes..at this way i did't looked at this song...here take an upvote^^

Ground Control to Major Tom
Ground Control to Major Tom
Take your protein pills and put your helmet on
Ground Control to Major Tom (ten, nine, eight, seven, six)
Commencing countdown, engines on (five, four, three)
Check ignition and may God's love be with you (two, one, liftoff)
This is Ground Control to Major Tom
You've really made the grade
And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear
Now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare
"This is Major Tom to Ground Control
I'm stepping through the door
And I'm floating in a most peculiar way
And the stars look very different today
For here
Am I sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet Earth is blue
And there's nothing I can do
Though I'm past one hundred thousand miles
I'm feeling very still
And I think my spaceship knows which way to go
Tell my wife I love her very much she knows
Ground Control to Major Tom
Your circuit's dead, there's something wrong
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you "Here am I floating 'round my tin can
Far above the moon
Planet Earth is blue
And there's nothing I can do"

+katelyn metcalf and also Ben Stiller bring me a great movie that really gave me the ability to be who I am and be proud of myself. You should see the movie, the secret life of walter mitty.
I've actually been wanting to see that. Is it on UA-cam?
+katelyn metcalf it is online don't miss it, it opened my eyes along with this song.
chill tf out
How could anybody... in this whole planet... call you weird... or say hateful things to you? You know what? Forget them... Stay strong...
I love the way it creates different moods.

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty... cool movie...
Hve you ever seen the original starring, DANNY KAYE?? The original SECRET LIFE OF WALTER MITTY IS MUCH BETTER!!
For me one of the best songs of all time
I often play this song when working in my maintenance hub before a really big project. I am always the only one there when I work. So I channel it through the PA and I get the huge hub echoing it. It puts me in the right frame of mind for the large project.
I didn't know David Bowie till I listened to this and it's truly the best song I've ever heard.
now you're floating in a most peculiar way.....
YOU DID NOT KNOW OF DAVID BOWIE?????!! PATHETIC
H. Ellis I’m sure there are lots of brilliant musicians you don’t know of
@@HEllis-qu5nnpeople don't just come out of the womb knowing everything???
I love SO MUCH this version!!! 😢😍🌌🌌🌌
Rest in peace David ;'(
This is freaking glorious jesus christ I want this played at my funeral
1:29 Such a beautiful harmony~
Wonderful duet. RIP.
Er war eine außergewöhnliche Gestalt! Die Szene im Film hat auch mir die Augen weit geöffnet!

3...2...1... Hora de partir... David impecável! Suas canções são imortais. Brasil/2020.
Para jamás olvidar a un Gran Artista y nunca olvidar que se pueden lograr sueños y concluir objetivos personales.

Very nice. I loved the movie and this song's place in it.
the stereo sound is damn good!
Thanks Bowie... :(
i see that movie scene, one of the best movie scenes
Detta är nog en av världens bästa låtar
LOve this version !
The "quintessential" word brought me here.
There is literally nothing kristen wiig can’t do
Except Ghostbusters
She can't touch her nose with her tongue or lick her elbow
@@svnsetsomnia8280 Beat me too it
Esta música te transporta a cualquier sitio que puedas imaginar. Bowie naciste antes de tiempo te fuiste de igual manera
welcome in the hall of fame. RIP David Bowie.
This version sounds like hope!
The producer of the original, Gus Dudgeon, also produced Elton John's Rocket Man
D-George Jempty oh that’s cool I was feeling that same vibe
"The quintessence of life"
i love this song and love you david
Love you David
Very Nice Mesh.....Would like to think The Thin White Duke was pleased and Smiling like only Bowie could......Cheers All
Thank you for liking my art work and for the credit, kartelperu ! ❤
+TheCassloop You made that cover? Becouse it's really cool!
+Sumtinrandom Thank you! :)
+TheCassloop It's a very good picture! ;) Did you upload somewhere?
Wonderful work, it could pass as the albums' cover - I thought it is until I read the comments!
awesome art! is that pastel?
Kirsten's elevated herself with this song. I somehow like this version more than the original. Gentle feminine touch.
LethalGaming88 agreed
thank you for put in words what I'm felling
Me too.
She fucking well elevated herself but she pulled the song down and ruined it for everyone with ears
@@Lobsinus
Ears have nothing to do with music, heart does, you probably don't have one.
RIP
Perfect Bowie is smiling somewhere
Love them both

Woooow ... 2023

This is amazing
I like this version better. Wiig's voice matches perfectly with it
OrangeAni wait did he sing it nor David Bowie??
Alice Forster it is a Bowie song. Kristen Wiig sang it for the movie.
The version in this video is from The Secret Life of Walter Mitty
it is a little too much fast
Wiigs voice is a dime a dozen, THe original is better.
musica muito boa se voce ta ouvido sabe o que eu to falando
Love David

Why can’t I play this on the secret life of Walter Mitty album on Apple Music???
"Tell my wife I love her very much."
"She knows."
God dammit, now I'm crying
De por si muy buena cancion,le vino bueno el ''refresco''.

Epic.
Might actually be better than the original
mmm... no
Ivan Bowie It's not, but the symphonic version is great
No way Bro!!!
The sound quality makes it better for me.
No shame to tell that, I agree. Addition of Kristen's voice works great.
I wish Wiig could have sang the whole song…
Love CW in this movie
Beautiful song.
Wonderful art.
muy bueno :)
Falcon Heavy brought me here!!

Best thing Wiggs done to date in my eye's & ears, fucking perfection, she should seriously consider taking up singing and quit acting
does anybody know if bowie had his opinion about that virtual duet :d?
Probs fucking hated it tbh, it sounds goddamn awful
